A television set (large size) was rolled into position and the Nebraska senators settled back to view and hear one of the dram as of the century: General Doug las MacArthur’s report to a joint session of congress on his re moval from supreme command in the Far East. Sen. Frank Nelson, of O’Neill, reached O’Neill Friday to spend the weekend, told The Frontier “there were tears in a good many eyes” when MacArthur climaxed his address with “an old soldier never dies—just fades away”. * * * Twice a Day Sessions Begin— Comparatively speaking, it was a quiet week in the legislature. With most of the “sideshows,’ like special investigations and personality dashers, shoved again into the background, the 43 men who write the laws for Nebras ka settled down to workmanlike sessions which pointed to ad journment sometime between May 15 and May 25. To speed the flow of bills through the mill, both morn ing and afternoon sessions were to get underway this week, which will have the ef fects of doubling the daily out put. This was made possible with the completion of public hearings on the 550-odd bills that have been introduced. And more Important, perhaps, there’s a feeling of harmony in the high-ceeinged senate cham ber. Even the weekly problem of what time to convene after the weekend recess, was solved by compromise. Senators who live close enough to go home for the weekend prefer to start at 10 a.m. Monday, so they can spend Sunday night at home. But far western representatives, who are forced to remain in the capitol, want to get started at 9. With classic simplicity, the two fac tions agreed to launch this week’s work at 9:30 a.m. Monday. • • • World-Herald Editor: 'Enterprising Journalism'— The liquor probe was one “sideshow” which was folding its * tent and about to steel silently a way when it got a new lease on life. Another hearing was scheduled for this week when a motion to end the inquiry ended in a tie vtote of 3-3 with the seventh member not voting. The count on the motion to hold this week’s meeting was 6-1. The World-Herald editor, Wal ter E. Christensen, apparently was called by the committee to ex plain an editorial criticizing the committee’s announced inten tion to call it quits. The editorial, as had news stories, pointed out how little investigating the in vestigators had done. Christensen said. "1 don't think there has been any great criticism." He described the editorial aa an "expression of regret that all of the matters that have come before you have not been sifted as far as you could." Reporters on the statehouse beat blame the committee itself for the fact that testimony some times appeared in the World Herald, and the Lincoln papers, before it was "released.” The first several hearings held by the probers were behind locked doors so reporters simply got to the witnesses before they testi fied and obtained interviews. That was what Christensen cal led "enterprising journalism.” Then on Saturday Gov. Val Peterson ordered the ousting of State Liquor Commissioner Blaine Young, of Omaha, on grounds of indulging in insur ance business with liquor deal ers, retailers. Wheat Backers Await 1953— Backers of LB 1, the ill-fated wheat utilization bill, gave up as the senator sped a repeal meas ure toward passage. Sen. Arthur Carmody, of Trenton, sponsor of LB 1, said the wheat men would try again in 1953 when there’s a less "unfriendly situation.” Jhe all-star primary, which brought the national spotlight to Nebraska in 1948 was dealt a death blow as the legislators, by voice vote, approved a repealer as part of the bulky election co dification bill. Sen. W. J. Wil liams, sponsor of the repeal bill, lost another skirmish, however, when he attempted to knock out the pre-primary conventions in the same codification measure. Music Pupils in Recital— Piano students of Mrs. Howard Manson presented their spring recital Friday evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. D. C. Schaffer. Those who took part were Ga ry Gillespie, Velda Ernst, Ray mond Strong, Karen Bridge, De naris Strong, Rita Waller, Kon nie Kurtz, Gary Waller, Lois Strong, Edward Price, Muriel Ernst, Elizabeth Schaffer, Vera Ernst, Mary Fox and Frances Reimer. After the recital, Mrs. Manson was presented with a gift from . her students. A luncheon was served.
